Love it.

Never underestimate live plants and their ability to add nice amount of diffusion to "relax" the sound and tame some of the reflections. No, they are not quite as effective as panels all over the...

My chair doubles as my computer desk chair. I can roll it a few feet and I am center stage. It's not a big room. :) It's just an Amazon Basics office chair of some sort, I bought it years ago for the...

Has been a while since I've listened to this gem. Always a pleasure. :music:

I've found over the years that starting the day with a cup of fresh brewed Java and Jazz piano playing some of the Gershwin standards is one of life's small pleasures. As the saying goes: "Sometimes...

One of my absolute favorites. Great album to wrap up the weekend.

Thanks

Near boundary reinforcement certainly helps if the speaker couples nicely and a balance can be established between too much and just right amount of coupling. The Harbeth 30.2 do not seem...

First high end piece was a McCormack DNA .5 amp followed by Audible Illusions 2A preamp, finally followed by the beautiful (for the time) Martin Logan SL3, finally replacing the very ho-hum Polk...

While I have direct experience with ASC products and have used them in the past, I have never tried GIK. How are effective are GIK products for the money?

Thanks.

Dizzy Reece is a fine hard bop trumpeter who has been overshadowed by the innovators of the style. He started on trumpet when he was 14 and moved to Europe in 1949. It was while he was based in...

Radio tuning indicator primarily? They are cool. I do recall seeing radios with those when I was a kid

Thanks Joe. Not exactly sure where the big room system will take me yet. I could go with the PrimaLuna Evo tube DAC and this Jazz room will be golden. I have the Luxman integrated and the Luxman SACD...

Mike you have the advantage of listening to them all so I'll take your word for it. I only have the 30.2 and they are definitely keeping me happy.

Dialed them in a bit more. 1/4 inch at a time to...

I had my 30.2’s in a room that was 30x30 for two years now. They were great in that large space. No problem filling the room with music. I don’t listen at rock convert levels so 70dB average is the...

Thanks for sharing Jim. Great story and memories.

A friend of mine had a very nice R2R collection and we listened to quite a bit of music that way over his well setup system in the 90's. I'll say dynamic range, frequency response and tape hiss be...

Original tape recordings of classics like Miles Davis, Kind of Blue, are treasures to be cherished. But given tape's limited bandwidth and dynamic range, does it make sense to preserve it using...

Not a specific answer for audio amplifier but it is the same concept. Relationship Between Gain & Power in Cell Signal Amps.

I think it has been out for a bit since it was reviewed one year ago in Stereophile? The "measurements" section should not be skipped... There are a few quirks. Pass Labs INT-25 integrated amplifier...

Sweet! A line-only integrated, it steers clear of the digital inputs, network functionality and onboard phono stage offered by many competitors. Instead, it presents itself simply as a conduit...

And that was also a nice video of a Studer R2R. What is the point of your comments? This is an audio forum. Open your own threads with whatever description you like.
